The MP Meri Galstyan noted that the successful experience of a number of countries was studied, according to which the solution to the problem of stray animals, in particular, dogs, was possible in the mentioned countries only in case of complex and multi-faceted legislative, sub-legislative solutions, institutional tools and phased implementation. The MP underlined the importance of having legislation in line with the international best practice and basic humanitarian principles of animal welfare.

The MP, the co-author of the drafts Arusyak Manavazyan added that the solution to the problem of stray animals is very relevant, especially in the regions, referring to the statistical data received from various institutions regarding the damage caused by stray animals and the health costs caused by them.

The Head of the Legal Support and Service Division of the National Assembly Mari Stepanyan presented the amendments to some legal regulations in response to the observations of the executive body.
